Looks like I'll be back on the KD band wagon again next month :lol:
My old Canon portable is about to become a paper weight and will be replaced by either a HP 450ci or a Canon i70. Will be mostly used for work, eg. text printing, but will also be called upon to print the odd photo.
Anyone have any experience with either model? I know that the photo print quality will never match a full sized printer (Canon 1960 that sits on my desk) but would like to hear from anyone that has experience with either.
Thanks in advance.

The i80 is the current model, same resolution as i70. The size of the ink tanks drives up the cost of photo printing but thats the price you pay for portability. They seem to be well built. The pics I saw looked very good.

Stick to a portable printer for text, and email photos to wal-mart to be picked at a store near you. It is a bargain. (25 c for a 4x5 in Canada or .17 in US), It can not be beaten
